Classes

Time: 10:00 - 13:00
Join us for a cooking class in Paris taught in English focused on France's most famous breakfast pastry : Le Croissant !
Know and loved by many, learn the secrets of this ever so flaky delicacy. During the croissant class, you will work and learn from start to finish the preparation of the Croissant as well as two other famous morning pastries.
Au menu :
Le Croissant
Le Pain au Chocolat
Le Croissant aux amandes (Croissant filled with Almond cream)
After preparation of your creations, enjoy them here with us, warm from the oven! Each participant will have goodie box to take away their creations (what is left of them!)
*please note that preparing a croissant from start to finish does normally take many, many hours of rising time (now you know why those little beauties cost more than a baguette!). We will have done some of the prework for you to ensure that you can go step by step through all of the critical stages, without all of the borning rising time inbetween. You will be working through each step to make your own homemade croissants!

If you are looking for a baking class in Paris, then do we have something for you ! When it comes to dough-making and bread-shaping, the French know best. Join us for a hands-on workshop and learn the secrets to making a French Baguette, in your home oven, as close as possible to those wonderful Parisian ‘Boulangeries'!
During the workshop, you will be working from start to finish to make your own selection of French Breads.
Au menu :
Baguettes Parisiennes
Fougasses (Artisanal breads filled with a variety of ingredients such as cheeses, spices, dried fruits, and nuts)
From Pétrissage à la main (Kneading and working your bread by hand) to Scarification du pain (Scarification of bread), in this workshop, you will learn the terms, techniques and applications to create your very own ‘Boulangerie chez vous’.
Beyond just creating your own breads, you pick up a couple of the insiders tips to the world of the ‘Baguettes’. Is every place you buy a baguette a “boulangerie”? We know the answer, and so will you!
Join us for the morning where you will start from scratch, and end with homemade Baguettes and Artisanal Fougasses fresh and warm from the oven ready to be taken home!
